Federal crown molding shapes adhere to the same style as base moldings: serpentine shapes like the cyma recta and cyma reversa.

While Federal style door and window trim could include simple designs, like rectangular planed surfaces, they were often more ornate. These moldings featured reeded and fluted surfaces combined with a cyma recta or other serpentine curve in their profile.

Federal Architecture & Trim Characteristics

Federal style homes and buildings are known for their symmetry in design, including facades, floor plans, and millwork.

Federal style homes often feature molding composed using the ogee, fillet, ovolo, bead and quirk, and the other profiles of classical architecture.
